Modernizing a Midcentury Gem with Respect for Its Roots
This 1960s midcentury modern home was deteriorating and outdated. The challenge was to update it with modern amenities and charm while preserving its architectural identity.
The goal was to refresh and visually expand the master bath, laundry room, and living area—without altering the existing footprint. Each space needed to feel more open, functional, and refined.
The existing outdoor living space was visually and physically disconnected from the interior kitchen and entertaining areas. A massive 30-foot brick chimney and enclosed screens blocked sightlines and flow, limiting the space’s usability and appeal.
The client wanted to transform an underused garage into a multifunctional space that could host guests, serve as a lounge, and include an upstairs office—all within the existing footprint.

Transforming a Forgotten Structure into a Sophisticated Guest Retreat
The goal was to convert a deteriorating outbuilding—once used for storage—into a refined, standalone in-law suite that felt both private and connected to the property’s character.
The homeowners wanted a new outdoor living area that would complement their 1920s ranch-style home while offering shade, cooking amenities, and space to entertain large groups.
Preserving a Century-Old Cabin for Modern Family Living
The client wanted to restore a family-built cabin from the early 1900s, which was deteriorating, and create more sleeping space without expanding the footprint.
The homeowners wanted an outdoor space that felt visually and emotionally connected to their kitchen above. The goal was to create a cohesive experience between the upper-level interior and the lower-level exterior.
Reviving a Failing Structure into a Luxurious Outdoor Space
The existing outdoor space was structurally compromised—sinking foundations, a collapsing roof, and a rotted deck rendered the area unusable. The challenge was to transform it into a refined, durable outdoor living room.
